Community service is ordered as an alternative to a fine or jail sentence for people on formal or bench probation, and is completed on road crew or at a non-profit organization. Failure to complete community service is considered a violation of probation and may result in a hearing or warrant.

How to start your community service work
If you have been placed on bench probation you must contact Washington County Community Corrections to sign up for a group intake to get a referral.
If you have been placed on formal probation, your probation officer will help you schedule your orientation.
A $40 fee is required for all cases and can be paid in person, by mail, or online.
In person orientation is available. Please sign up at the front desk via phone or in person. A self-guided orientation is also available.
